Surely there must be a way to save something from Illustrator at it's correct size ignoring the art board. So what I always end up doing at this point is opening a Photoshop file of the size I need, pasting in the art from Illustrator as pixels, then doing a 'save for web' to make it a jpg. Choose High (300ppi) for Resolution and Art Optimzed for Anti-aliasing.

I can't find any option or setting to just save or export or save for web for just the layer, i.e. Community Expert, You can try: File > Export > Export As > JPEG Check Use Artboards (if your Artboard matches the size of your card). It always saves the whole artboard with my small logo in the corner. I grab a corner and resize my logo - looks great except now it's a small logo in the corner of a large art board.Īnd I cannot figure out how to just save or export the art. So i need a version that is only 150 pixels wide. I need a version of it that is smaller and web friendly so I can add my logo to an online service. Right now I am working with my logo file. The whole artboard thing drives me crazy and I can never seem to do what i want. Step 3: Open the dropdown called Save As Type/. This is probably the biggest reason I so often turn to Photoshop instead of Illustrator. Step 2: Name your new file and choose the folder/location you want to save to.
